GETHERplan
The sustainable districts design software GETHERPLAN measures carbon impacts in real time.
How does it work?
It is an assisted sustainable design software which measures carbon impacts in real time (during the design process).
INTERFACE AND SUPPORTS
You can directly interact with the interface on large format multi touchscreen tablet to facilitate project collaboration with different people. If you want to work alone on your project, you can use a touchscreen tablet and desktop.
ADDED VALUE
Thanks to GETHERplan, our clients can :
• Obtain optimal sustainable performance of planning while reducing costs and time for variants
• Optimize collaborations/exchanges and decision-making
• Optimize project management and monitoring under the axis of sustainable impacts (définition and control of objectives, etc.)
• Facilitate the obtaining of sustainable certifications, meet and measure ESG criteria under the Environmental axis
DISTRIBUTION
You can buy licence on our website on a self-service online sales platform or that of specific service providers (eg Architecture school)
Why is it needed?
THE PROBLEM
The latest report from the IPCC describes the consequences of global warming. To mitigate them, a drastic reduction in our global carbon footprint is required. District design is responsible for 30% to 40% of carbon footprint.
THE SOLUTION
1. Reduce the carbon impact from the design of districts, ie increase the sustainable performance of districts, reduce the costs of optimizing this performance, act quickly on a global scale.
2. Reduce the delay of construction of sustainable districts (adaptation of territory) by ensuring citizens' and urban suppliers' support .
HOW ?
1. By offering all urban architects (private or public sector) and their school, developers of urban projects and organizers of competitions the sustainable district design software GETHERplan.
2. By offering all experts of citizen participation and consultation services of territories the sustainable consultation software and training of the democratic consultation method GETHERplan.
How does it improve life?
What is OUR VISION ?
Based on the observation that tools used for the sustainable design of districts are inadequate and that the architect's climate action is limited to his mandates, URBAN PERSPECTIVE proposes new levers of action to support the implementation of the ecological transition :
GETHERplan technologies aim to generate an optimal, rapid, transversal environmental impact and action on all projects.
What are the IMPACTS EXPECTED ?
Environnemental impacts:
- CARBON FOOTPRINT : -30% on carbon footprint
- OTHER SUSTAINABLE CRITERIA: control of defined objectives
Economic impacts:
- SUSTAINABLE DISTRICTS PERFORMANCE COSTS: - 70% for the same performance with the actual control process
- RISK OF LOSSES ON YIELD AND VARIABLE COSTS: - 60% à 70% losses related to oppositions
Govenance impacts:
- EQUITY IN PROJECT GOVERNANCE: Democratic citizen inclusion
